#228 of 489 Help! by jefurton86

I have a 2005 Dodge Stratus SXT Special Edition. I've had it since May '05, and I hate this car. It's given me nothing but problems. The Chrysler tells me that I have pretty much one more problem until they begin the "buyback" process, but I need to know if anyone has any advice on how to kick start this little process, or if anyone has dealt with the same thing. Its my first brand new car, and it pisses me off that I've had nothing but problems with it. If anyone has a number or a person that I could get a hold of that'd be great!

Nov 08, 2005 (11:25 am)

I have been driving this car for a few years now, and I have had numerous issues with it, and the most recent is with the RPM gague, the mileage gauge and the ABS brake light. The ABS brake light is on most of the time, but the brakes were replaced a little over a year ago, it will go off sometimes, but is usually always on. The Mileage guage and the RPM gague seem to be connected because they will simultaneously and randomly shut off, and then come back on. This happens while I am driving and I am a little nervous about the wiring, since I have had many problems with sensors and such before. Any ideas as to what exactly the issues is?

2000 Dodge Stratus SE 2.0L V-6 91,000. has now started to act up. While going any distance or speed the engine will cut out but not shut off. This will go on for quit some time. However now instead of staying started will cut out and die. I can re start the car and continue on my way. This has become more frequent. My car starts back up every time. Have been told this is the fuel pump after having car diagnosed. I Have also had many comments that this may be a computer problem, but no check engine light comes on or may be my fuel filter. Any ideas?

Sounds like the computer to me, I had a similar problem with my 1994 Spirit.

#232 of 489 Rough idle 2004 Stratus by ralph13

Nov 14, 2005 (4:11 pm)

I have a 2004 Dodge Stratus V6 2.7 Litre. Bought it with 18,000 miles on it. Now at 32,000 miles, when coming to a complete stop the engine runs smooth for about 20 seconds then it starts to idle rough. It doesn't happen when the engine is cold, but only after it is warmed up. Is this common? Any advise would be much appreicated.
Thank You,
